The Lady Longhorn volleyball team took a gigantic step toward keeping its post-season playoff hopes alive with a come-from-behind match win over the Mingus Marauders.
The win, which coach Arnold Stonebrink called “huge,” was chalked up Oct. 11 at Mingus High in Cottonwood.
In the pulsating match, the Lady Horns won the first set 25-20, but lost the next two 25-22 and 25-18, setting the stage for what could have been an easy Marauder victory.
